Is this possibly caused by having $SHELL set in the environment

We have a winner! The SHELL environment variable was set in both
cases to /bin/bash. Well, doing a "echo $SHELL" returned "/bin/bash"
in both cases. However, doing a "env | grep SHELL=" only returned
"SHELL=/bin/bash" in the ssh window. If I unset the SHELL
environment variable in the ssh window, I can get dmake to work! I
don't quite understand the subtle difference of how these environment
variables are set, but I am happy that I can now run our builds over
ssh.
So thanks for the SHELL environment variable hint which helped me
find a solution, Dave. I owe you a <insert your favorite beverage
here>.
